Automated outer kraft removing – a new standard in hygiene and efficiency

PanPac has identified a need to automate the process of removing the kraft out-liner from bags containing milk powder — a process traditionally performed manually in the dairy industry.

PanPac’s laser cutting bag opener eliminates repetitive manual tasks and minimizes operator contact with the packaging, contributing to a safer, more efficient, and hygienic production process.

Patented technology
PanPac has developed a patented technology that uses laser cutting to remove the outer kraft without damaging the PE inner liner.

This eliminates the need for maintenance and service of cutting tools such as knives, resulting in a reliable and hygienic solution with minimal service requirements.

The solution is ideal for companies handling products in open-mouth bags with PE inner liners. This includes both dairy producers and pharmaceutical manufacturers, where hygiene and process optimization are critical.

Flexible solution
Our laser cutting kraft removing solution is highly versatile and can be used for all types of products packed in bags with PE inner liners - regardless of industry.

Capacity: 200 bags/hour.
